Micro.blog integrates with Bluesky in a few ways that people don’t know about, so I collected a summary of each feature together in a single help page. Also, new feature coming tomorrow that I’ll add to this page.

Kali Kambo

It’s really helpful to see all these features summarized on one page. Thank you!

Manton Reece

@kalikambo Glad to hear it.

Does having two factor break this? I kept getting a failed login until I realized I was spamming myself with the two factor code :)

Manton Reece

@linh You’ll need to generate app-specific passwords on Bluesky if using two-factor auth. Let me know if that doesn’t fix it! Later we’ll move to OAuth when the dust settles with that on Bluesky.

Do you have plans to enable video cross-posting now that it is generally available on Bluesky? This would solve a really important use case for me (cross-platform animated weather radar imagery).

Manton Reece

@jaredwsmith I do want to support video. I looked at it briefly and it was a medium-sized change, so haven’t had a chance to tackle it yet.

Linh Nguyen

oh wow, totally missed the app password section! Logged in!

I’m curious about the linking to syndicated posts on bsky.app. Does atproto give you a canonical URL, or are you left to assume that this is the best host for viewing posts?

Jared Smith

Sweet. Glad to hear it! Can imagine there’s a bit of work there.
